INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND

OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH

GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS

Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park and Recreation District Kitsap County

January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2015

Board of Commissioners Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park and Recreation District Bainbridge Island, Washington

We have audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing

Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park and Recreation District, Kitsap County, Washington, as of and for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the District’s financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated November 29, 2016.

We issued an unmodified opinion on the fair presentation of the District’s financial statements in accordance with its regulatory basis of accounting. We issued an adverse opinion on the fair presentation with regard to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) because the financial statements are prepared by the District using accounting practices prescribed by Washington State statutes and the State Auditor’s Budgeting, Accounting

and Reporting System (BARS) manual described in Note 1, which is a basis of accounting other than GAAP. The effects on the financial statements of the variances between the basis of accounting described in Note 1 and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, although not reasonably determinable, are presumed to be material.

INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING In planning and performing our audits of the financial statements, we considered the District’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the District’s

internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the District’s internal control.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the District's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

In addition, we noted certain matters that we have reported to the management of the District in a separate letter dated November 29, 2016.

COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the District’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of the District’s compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.

PURPOSE OF THIS REPORT The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the District’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the District’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose. However,

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park and Recreation District

Kitsap County January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2015

Board of Commissioners Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park and Recreation District Bainbridge Island, Washington

REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park and Recreation District, Kitsap County, Washington, for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the District’s financial statements, as listed on page 11.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with the financial reporting provisions of Washington State statutes and the Budgeting, Accounting and Reporting System (BARS) manual prescribed by the State Auditor described in Note 1. This includes determining that the basis of accounting is acceptable for the presentation of the financial statements in the circumstances. Management is also responsible for the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing

Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, Washington State Auditor's Office

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Page 7

Page 8: Financial Statements Audit Report Bainbridge Island Metropolitan … · 2017-05-19 · Financial Statements Audit Report Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park and Recreation District

including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the District’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the District’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Unmodified Opinion on Regulatory Basis of Accounting (BARS Manual)

As described in Note 1, the Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park and Recreation District has prepared these financial statements to meet the financial reporting requirements of Washington State statutes using accounting practices prescribed by the State Auditor’s Budgeting, Accounting

and Reporting System (BARS) manual. Those accounting practices differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The differences in these accounting practices are also described in Note 1.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations of the Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park and Recreation District, for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, on the basis of accounting described in Note 1.

Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S. GAAP

Auditing standards issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) require auditors to formally acknowledge when governments do not prepare their financial statements, intended for general use, in accordance with GAAP. The effects on the financial statements of the variances between GAAP and the accounting practices the District used, as described in Note 1, although not reasonably determinable, are presumed to be material. As a result, we are required to issue an adverse opinion on whether the financial statements are presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with GAAP.

Adverse Opinion on U.S. GAAP

The financial statements referred to above were not intended to, and in our opinion they do not, present fairly, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the financial position of the Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park and Recreation District, as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, or the changes in financial position or cash flows for the years then ended, due to the significance of the matter discussed in the above “Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S. GAAP” paragraph.

Other Matters

Supplementary and Other Information

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying Schedules of Liabilities are presented for purposes of additional analysis, as required by the prescribed BARS manual. These schedules are not a required part of the financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

OTHER REPORTING REQUIRED BY GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated November 29, 2016 on our consideration of the District’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Bainbridge Island Park & Recreation District was incorporated in May 1965 in accordance with RCW 36.69. From 2004 to 2007 the District simultaneously operated as a park and recreation district as well as a metropolitan park district under the provisions of Chapter 35.61 Revised Code of Washington (RCW).

Component units are required to be disclosed, but are not included in the financial statements.

Government-wide statements, as defined in GAAP, are not presented. All funds are presented, rather than a focus on major funds. The Schedule of Liabilities is required to be presented with the financial

The District reports the following governmental funds: General Fund: The general fund is the operating fund of the District. It accounts for all financial resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Capital Improvement Fund: These funds account for financial resources which are designated for the acquisition, improvement or construction of general capital projects. Debt Service Fund: These funds account for the accumulation of resources to pay principal, interest and related cost on general long-term debt.

The District has the following fiduciary fund: Deposit Fund: Fund 94954 was designated by the board to place deposits paid to the Park District by the caretakers living at various parks. NOTE 2: BASIS OF ACCOUNTING Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. Revenues are recognized only when cash is received and expenditures are recognized when paid, including those properly chargeable against the report year(s) budget appropriations as required by state law. Purchases of capital assets are expensed during the year of acquisition. There is no capitalization of capital assets, nor allocation of depreciation expense. Inventory is expensed when purchased. The basis of accounting described above represents a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

These budgets are appropriated at the fund level (except the general (current expense) fund, where the budget is adopted at the department). The budget constitutes the legal authority for expenditures at that level. Annual appropriations for these funds lapse at the fiscal year end.

Members make an annual contribution to fund Enduris and share in the self-insured retention of the jointly purchased excess and/or reinsurance coverage. The self-insured retention is:

$1,000,000 deductible on liability loss - the member is responsible for the first $1,000 of the deductible amount of each claim, while Enduris is responsible for the remaining $999,000 on a liability loss.

$250,000 deductible on property loss - the member is responsible for the first $1,000 of the deductible amount of each claim, while Enduris is responsible for the remaining $249,000 on a property loss.

Enduris is responsible for the $4,000 deductible on boiler and machinery loss.

Liability coverage is for all lines of liability coverage including Public Official’s Liability. The Property coverage is written on an “all risk”, blanket basis using current Statement of Values.

The Master Agreement (Intergovernmental Contract) is automatically renewed after the initial one (1) full fiscal year commitment. Even after termination, a member is still responsible for contribution to Enduris for any unresolved, unreported and in-process claims for the period they were a signatory to the Master Agreement. Enduris is fully funded by its member participants. Claims are filed by members with Enduris and are administered in house.

Land Acquisition Fund: This fund is designated by the board to account for financial resources which are designated for the acquisition of land for use in furtherance of the Districts purpose. The District has the following fiduciary fund: Deposit Fund: Fund 94954 was designated by the board to place deposits paid to the Park District by the caretakers living at various parks. NOTE 2: BASIS OF ACCOUNTING Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. Revenues are recognized only when cash is received and expenditures are recognized when paid, including those properly chargeable against the report year(s) budget appropriations as required by state law. Purchases of capital assets are expensed during the year of acquisition. There is no capitalization of capital assets, nor allocation of depreciation expense. Inventory is expensed when purchased. The basis of accounting described above represents a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. NOTE 3: BUDGETARY INFORMATION The District adopts annual budgets for all funds. These budgets are appropriated at the fund level (except the general (current expense) fund, where the budget is adopted at the department and cost center level). The budget constitutes the legal authority for expenditures at that level. Annual appropriations for these funds lapse at the fiscal year end. Annual appropriated budgets are adopted on the same basis of accounting as used for financial reporting.
